  1. Re:No Spreadsheet? on iPod Shuffle, Mac Mini, iLife '05, iWork · · Score: 0

    I was really hoping for vector graphics. I still use old appleworks 6 for this since ms office doesn't have it. Illustrator is expensive and I don't need that much. People always ask me "Did you really draw that" when I give presentations. I hope that they will add drawing to iwork. I could see before that keynote was the first of an office suite. I think there will be drawing and spreadsheet hopefully soon

  2. Re:/. behind the times on iTunes Accepts PayPal · · Score: 0

    Yes. Interestingly I've submitted articles which apparently are not accept and then find 12 to a day later that what I was submitting was accepted but not the submission I sent in. Have no idea why. Am I that bad a writer?

  3. Re:Why are we celebrating this? on War of the Worlds, Chocolate Factory Trailers · · Score: 0

    Because the book was meant to be violent in disturbing. The auther was quite displeased with the production and wanted it remade. He was quite a fan of Tim Burton and met with him. He felt that Burton could reproduce the correct feel. After being quite happy that Burton was remaking it (it was a long time before he actually started making it) he died. Hopefully he would have been pleased. Unfortunately this is from my film class and I cannot site sources for you bet I'm assured that's the way it is

    That's not what I'm saying. I'm just saying it's not so black and white. He shouldn't be punished for not being psychic but I wouldn't think it would be fair for apple to be punished for the publication schedule either.

    Actually, no, they did register the underlying trademark. According to silicon.com they registered it in october. This guy got his domain in november. Then apples trademark was made public in december.

    No he did not. Apple registered in october but it was not made public until december while this guy registered in december. From silicon.com: "Actually he didn't. He registered it between the time apple registered the itunes trademark and it was made public that apple registered the trademark. From silicon.com: "Although Apple applied for a trademark for the name iTunes on 27 October 2000 that information was confidential until it was published in the UK Trade Marks Journal on 6 December 2000, almost a month after Cohen registered the domain name." I don't know how this works legally but it is not true that he registered first

    Actually he didn't. He registered it between the time apple registered the itunes trademark and it was made public that apple registered the trademark. From silicon.com: "Although Apple applied for a trademark for the name iTunes on 27 October 2000 that information was confidential until it was published in the UK Trade Marks Journal on 6 December 2000, almost a month after Cohen registered the domain name." Now since he registered in november that means he registered after the trademark was registered. I do not know how the law works in this situation but apple did register the trademark before he registered the domain.

    Indeed. Very common. Apple, in fact sells its own arm bands for the ipod mini.

    No, you fucking idiot. This would save you money. Nasa has to pay for work done for them either way only this way they pay for the best work after the work is done. You must be really stupid
